Follow The Prophet – The Words & Deeds of God's Living Prophet, President Thomas S. Monson

Sister Ann Dibb, second counselor in the Young Women's general presidency, and daughter of President Monson

Blogger Kimberly Job had the opportunity this week to attend a meeting where Sister Ann Dibb spoke, second counselor in the Young Women’s general presidency, and daughter of President Monson.  Among the many things she spoke about, she gave an intimate glimpse of her father, and what it is like being the daughter of the prophet.

She noted that she is a whiner and that her father is always trying to help her see the bright side of things.  He tells her to let things go if there is nothing she can do about it, which she eventually concedes to.

She gave many fun details about President Monson.  He loves chocolate, and whistles when he’s happy.  He takes care of pigeons, loves going to musicals, fishing, springer spaniels, and attending Utah Jazz basketball games.

Sister Dibb was asked if she can call her father when she wants to.  She said that she respects his time and busy schedule, but that she can talk to him when she needs him.

President Monson loves pictures of his wife, Frances.  He also loves certain television shows including Perry Mason, Antiques Roadshow, Lawrence Welk, sports, and the news.

She said that her father is not perfect, but that she loves him, and is grateful for his example of loving others.
